What does it mean to be a true mumbaikar?

A true Mumbaikar means someone who never lets life put them down and who keeps forging ahead. Examples of this attitude are how people went to their jobs the next day despite bomb blasts. Also, a chilled out character with modern thoughts and views on society will pass as a Mumbaikar...Lastly what defines a Bombayite is having unsurpassable passion for cricket and Bollywood.

Law of attraction

Hi Guys,

I recently read a life-transforming book called The Secret. It basically introduces the audience to the a concept called "The Law of Attraction". The book (also a movie) states that whatever situation we are currently in, we have attracted into our lives and these circumstances or people come to us by the images we hold in our minds. If its a positive experience, we've attracted that into our lives by the images we hold in our heads and if its a negative situation we're complaining about, we've attracted that as well.

The book and the movie talks about how everything in the universe is connected and that we live in a "feeling" universe where all is available to us in abundance but we fail to recognize this and are constantly stuck in a negative pool of circumstances.

Isn't this true guys? I mean everybody knows that when an individual wants something wholeheartedly and truly then the whole universe conspires to turn that dream into a reality. We all have the power to create our lives the way we want to. I personally believe that the universe is waiting for us to ask so that it can deliver. Many times we think that if things don't come to us naturally, they don't belong to us but that's not true! We need to first believe that we can have everything we want, and then ask the universe to deliver it to us. And for us to receive anything, we need to have unwaivering faith that its already ours. Its like owning a Mercedes in your head but not in reality, but knowing that you will own one in the near future. How does that sound?

I think I like this concept of law of attraction. Its something I'd like to apply in my day-to-day living. I've already listed down events and people I'd like to see coming into my life. My recommendation is that you read the book. It truly is life-transforming!!!!
